Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 65 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers are really happy with the products, finding them to be of high quality and easy to use. Many appreciate the straightforward setup and the peace of mind these devices offer, especially for morning-after checks. People also find the upgrade process simple and the pricing reasonable for the value received. However, some customers experienced issues with older models, noting that they were inaccurate or became obsolete. A few also mentioned that the display of results could be clearer, as the numerical readings don't always align with commonly known limits. Additionally, some found the short blow tubes inconvenient and wished for a thicker carry case to accommodate all accessories.

AlcoSense Pro

I bought this not just to check if it was safe to drive in the morning but also safe to work. Very impressed with the results. Not just saving my driving license but also my job. Very well built pity for the price you don't get a case for it.

If you depend on your car, very dependable product.

If you depend on your car for mobility, then the product these guys sell is a reliable tester for any potential alcohol in your system. I have bought others (we live in a rural setting and have to drive) and their reading are inconsistent when "tested (that was fun). If you have been in the pub - dont drive. If you know you have had too much - dont drive. But sometimes, emergencies happen and you might be unsure if that 1/4 glass has put you over the limit. This product will tell you, and has a margin for error built in. Once ordered it is dispatched immediately and is very easy to use. Turn on, insert tube, listen for prompt then blow. I might only ever have to use it once, but that once may be enough to save my licence, or my life! Recommended.

Very impressed!

Very impressed with the product and their technical support. Read the manual for my Excel unit and wanted to fully understand how the readings work. My call to Technical Support was answered promptly and politely and my query quickly resolved. Have now been using the unit over the last month and find it's easy to use and is able to reassure me I am not driving when I shouldn't be.

Peace of Mind

Bought this to use over the Christmas period, and couldn’t believe that I thought I was safe to drive the day after a night out. Used the next day a few times throughout the day, and wasn’t safe to drive until around 8pm. Easy to use, and gives you peace of mind that you are safe to drive. Don’t risk it; keep you and everyone else safe.

AlcoSense Pro - Well worth the peace of mind it provides

Bought the AlcoSense Pro primarily as I want to make sure that I'm always under the limit, particularly the morning after. It's really easy to set up and use and appears to provide accurate results consistently. It really provides an interesting insight into the effects of alcohol both at the point of drinking and the day after, and I'll definitely recommend that all my friends should have one - well worth the money for the peace of mind.

I have never used that before and…

I have never used that before and realised that it is very helpful - so sorry that I have not been using the breathylyzer before. It is very easy to use,result done very quick and screen is readable well. I will recommend this for my friends and colleagues. The breathylyzer is small and handy, can be in my pocket all the time.

Easy to set up and get a speedy result

I received the alco sense excel product for Christmas as I always worry about unintentionally being over the limit. Easy to follow instructions and my first breathalyser test came out negative which is great. A handy product to have in the car for those moments when you may be in doubt. Strongly recommend for comfort and peace of mind.

Fast efficient delivery

Fast efficient delivery , great idea and handy size ….works well and seems very accurate.
Only downside side is it doesn’t come with a storage bag , which would be extremely helpful to store and keep it clean etc.
But definitely worth the purchase.
It’s handy you can change the settings depending on which country your in, as I travel between Scotland and England frequently and they have different limits.

Alcosense Lite 2 initial thoughts

Bought from boots which was straightforward. Haven't used it a great deal yet other than initial setup test. Setup was clear and simple, came with batteries and 6 plastic tubes, apparently single use only? Wasn't aware at purchasing that I'd have to buy additional tubes each time going forwards, not quite the reusable description I had in mind, I get that the device is... just not the tubes...not great for the environment. Similarly unaware of the annual recalibration commitment at approx £24. However I guess these are both cheaper than the consequences of being unfit to drive

Seems to say it's ideal for morning after checks rather than same day, eg instructions indicate that readings can fluctuate upto 90mins after last alcoholic drink. Great information and but didn't know this was a limitation of the device to begin with and therefore probably not as suitable for people who might have a midday drop of alcohol and want to know if they are safe to drive shortly afterwards

10 years on…

I first purchased some 10 years ago the alcosense Excel unit which was a great item and easy to use, I have now upgraded to a PRO via a good trade up price, Still the same size & design with the added benefit that my spare mouthpieces from to old model will fit. Excellent refinements from the old model with the green bars and the extra blow coach,time until sober,test memory etc. etc. A great device and would recommend.

For a first time buyer, it was a great experience. I ordered the product on Friday and requested if it can be delivered on Saturday as it is a non working day. Product arrived on time and working well!
